In the early spring this garden is open and airy, but by the end of the summer when the annual plantings of cosmos, nicotiana, castor beans and sunflowers join the tall grasses, this spot is hidden away, barely noticeable. It is a perfect hiding spot. Butterflies and bees buzz happily around you as you enjoy a closeness not found elsewhere in the gardens.
Originally the site of an above ground pool, and soggy wet in very early spring.
The round patio of bricks adds a welcome place to sip on a cup of herbal tea or a glass of homemade wine.
Speaking of wine... On to the Grape Arbour...
